Queen of Hill Station in Tamilnadu, Kanyakumari Resort Resort, Resorts in Kanyakumari, Kanyakumari Hotels (aveholidayhome.com)


Queen of Hill Stations

Ooty, which is deep within the Nilgiri hills, is also known as The Blue Mountains. It is unknown whether this name comes from the blue smoky haze given off by the eucalyptus trees that cover the area, or because of the kurunji flower, which blooms every twelve years giving the slopes a bluish tinge. Unlike any other region in the country, no historical proof is found to state that Ooty was a part of any kingdoms or empires. Tippu Sultan was the first to extend his border by constructing a hideout cave like structure.

Republic day in India, Resorts in Kanyakumari, Kanyakumari Resort Resort, Kanyakumari Hotels, Nagercoil Resort (aveholidayhome.com)


Republic Day Celebration in India


                    Republic Day is one of the three national holidays of India and the greatest festival celebrated in the country. It is celebrated every year on January 26, in New Delhi with great pomp, fanfare and pageant. While in the capitals of the States and other headquarters, it is marked with patriotic fervor. The most spectacular celebrations are marked by the Republic Day Parade that takes place in the capital of New Delhi at Rajpath. It includes march past of the three armed forces, massive parades, folk dances by tribal folk from different states in picturesque costumes marking the cultural unity of India. Further, the streak of jet planes of Indian Air Force, leaving a trial of colored smoke, marks the end of the festival.
             India became independent of the United Kingdom on August 15, 1947. India did not have a permanent constitution at this time. The drafting committee presented the constitution's first draft to the national assembly on November 4, 1947. The national assembly signed the final English and Hindi language versions of the constitution on January 24, 1950.
                  India's constitution came into effect on Republic Day, January 26, 1950. This date was chosen as it was the anniversary of Purna Swaraj Day, which was held on January 26, 1930.The constitution gave India's citizens the power to govern themselves by choosing their own government. Dr Rajendra Prasad took oath as India's first president at the Durbar Hall in the Government House, followed by a residential drive along a route to the Irwin Stadium, where he unfurled India's national flag. Ever since the historic day, January 26 is celebrated with festivities and patriotic fervor across India.

Shopping place in Kanyakumari, Kanyakumari Resorts, Resort in Kanyakumari, Nagercoil Resort Resort (aveholidayhome.com)


Shopping in Kanyakumari

        Kanyakumari offers a wide range of shopping options and you can get sea shells, pearls, clothes, wood items, paintings and handicraft items. Everything is cheap – for example a handmade hat costs as little as Rs. 10! But if you are a foreigner or a tourist, you will find that the shop keepers tell you a different price! So it is a must to haggle on the price if you want to get it cheap!
            We purchased hats, cloth bags and bamboo paintings from there. Buying a hat is a must if you plan to walk around the place.
